From our Agronomist;
Woolly Aphid is starting to become more obvious on trees. These are the breeding colonies, mainly on burrs and pruning cuts, and they will start to migrate onto branches over the next few weeks. Aphox (at high water volume and good temperatures) Gazelle or Mainmain are the main control options. Calypso is not particularly effective.

As the title says required for couple of potentially long days for work around Colchester this Wednesday and Thursday. You are to supply PPE only. We will supply saws, climbing kit etc.
Must be self employed and be able to get to Colchester for pick up.
Pay negotiable.
